YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Iranian state television has released video of what it says is Iran's Navy seizing two ships in Hormuz. The footage, broadcast on April 23, is the latest escalation in the battle for control of the strait. #iran #worldnews #politics #trump #usa #israel

The US is waiting for a response from Iran before peace talks can restart, with the impasse and worsening tension over the Strait of Hormuz causing energy prices to rise.

Iran has said it will not resume negotiations while a US naval blockade on its ports is in place, and the US military has intercepted Iranian oil supertankers that tried to evade the blockade.

The US wants Iran to agree to hand over its stocks of highly-enriched uranium, which Iran has so far refused to do, and the blockade will only end once Iran agrees a deal that ends the war.
